“I just watched @LegalEagle’s analysis of the DC Trump indictment. It perfectly illustrates the political subversion of the judicial process.
He is invoking, as “legal” justification for the Trump indictment, the wildly political and absolutely unjust precedent set in DC against the Jan. 6ers, and the equally politically outrageous precedent in the Douglass Mackey meme “election interference” conviction.
And this is how it works. The system starts with small targets in politically biased jurisdictions. It gets the politically motivated conviction, then relies on that politically motivated precedent as justification for equally outlandish political persecution of bigger political targets.
With this pattern of judicial precedent laundering in mind, people should pay much more attention to the [Couy] Griffin [precedent], should it be allowed to stand.😂”
And Jack Smith wants Trump on trial less than two weeks before Iowa. If this was happening in Russia, liberals would call for regime change. But they're all excited about it because they actually agree with Putin's tactics more than they realize.
As the 2024 election approaches, NBC News, MSNBC and CNN go on a hiring spree of putting former Biden WH communications officials in their newsroom, turning themselves into even more blatant pro-Dem State TV outlets than they were before:https://t.co/KYchQSYGG5
“Members of presidential administrations taking roles with news networks isn’t a particularly new phenomenon. Former Bush administration press secretary Dana Perino has fostered a successful career on Fox News. Former Clinton advisor and White House communications direction George Stephanopoulos took on a prominent role as the face of ABC News.
When it comes to the Biden presidency, however, several lines have been blurred between official presidential messaging coming from the briefing room and networks who are hiring former Biden officials for prominent roles as he gears up for a re-election campaign. Networks are staffing up their ranks of former Biden communications officials at a furious pace.
Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki was hired by the White House from her perch as a CNN contributor and pushed the bogus fifty-one intelligence officials story on Hunter Biden’s laptop. She herself was never made to answer for that story by White House reporters. In April of 2022, it was announced that Psaki would be taking a role at MSNBC with the very people who were supposed to hold her and the White House accountable. This was almost unheard of: a sitting White House press secretary announcing a job with the media, while still in her role. She faced little pushback from future colleagues. Psaki now sits at MSNBC, where she regularly interviews former White House co-workers and Biden cabinet members, much to the dismissal of other journalists who either see a major conflict of interest and simply remain silent, or don’t. Which is worse?
Last week, CNN announced the hiring of Jamaal Simmons, fresh off his role as Vice President Kamala Harris’s communications director. Her office has yet to replace Simmons, seemingly aware that CNN is taking on that job for Harris. Only two weeks prior to the Simmons hire, CNN announced that former Biden White House communications director Kate Bedingfeld had been hired as an on-air commentator and contributor.
So if you’re keeping track, MSNBC has a former Biden press secretary who spends her show interviewing Biden administration officials, and now CNN has hired both former lead communications directors of that same president and vice president. This all comes as Biden himself begins to mount a re-election campaign, which will not so secretly rely heavily upon allies in the media to ignore scandals and questions of mental and physical fitness that come with an advanced age, and to keep Donald Trump and his mounting legal troubles front and center and in the living rooms, gyms and restaurants of the American people.”

Welcome to 2023, where satirical websites like the Babylon Bee are forced to compete with real-life headlines that that one.
Earlier this month, officials at HHS advised hundreds of federal employees to work from home indefinitely rather than risk commuting to the downtown federal building, which has become a hotspot for street drug deals in recent months. There’s some kind of metaphor here, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. Help is welcome in the comments.
“In light of the conditions at the (Federal Building) we recommend employees … maximize the use of telework for the foreseeable future,” HHS Assistant Secretary for Administration Cheryl Campbell wrote in an August 4th memo obtained by the San Francisco Chronicle.
If even the federal government is fleeing San Fransisco, what hope do the residents have? Get out while you can!
Ironically, the HHS memo reportedly was issued the very same day that Joe Biden called on his cabinet to “aggressively execute” plans for federal employees to return to their offices after working remotely since the COVID-19 pandemic first began. But not in San Fransisco, apparently.
So that’s the federal government’s plan to keep its employees safe. Evacuate San Fransisco
Really feels like Wonderland when you hear someone say the gangs should at least not kill during the day. It would be really something to hear what our grandparents think about what is happening to our nation these days. Incredibly sad.
I found an ad for the New York Sun newspaper in my email. Opinions here whether it is a balanced source of news? I know there are reader services for the visually impaired in case I decided to go that route.

Weather department at ABC News received extremely nasty backlash for their article on connecting climate change to devastating Maui fires. A headline change occurred but the article's (correct) conclusion remains.
Politicians love to blame climate change because it takes the focus off of their stunning incompetence. This risk was well known, people asked that it be addressed but it wasn’t. I’m sure the idiots will be re elected though.
The phrase you’re looking for is “cruel and unusual punishment.”

Why Everything They Say About California Fires — Including That Climate Matters Most — Is Wrong
In 2018, a fire ripped through the town of Paradise, California, killing 85 people. It was the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in the state’s history.
The American legal system is punishing even for the innocent. It’s designed that way. It’s far more punitive than necessary. And it affects the poor more than the rich. A false arrest can lead to a loss of job and home simply because one can’t afford bail for a minor offence. Often innocent people will plead guilty to a misdemeanour to get out of jail and back to work in time. They are then stuck with fines that never end – added service fees and interest means they like student loans never end. Once jailed even when found innocent, employers and landlords will treat them differently and it becomes a spiral downward.
To hear the political elites complain about the process is ironic. They enforced and created this system. And now it’s being used against them. Using RICO on Giuliani is the most ironic since he pioneered the use of RICO not only against the mob but also his Democratic opponents in NYC. The original weaponization of an attorney’s office.
I was puzzled about pulling kids out of school in the tweet – public education is free but then I realised they went to private school, hard to be sympathetic when going to public school is considered punishment by the elite.
The Democrats should propose $24 million for Hawaii just to see if Republicans put their money where their mouth is. If memory serves me correctly, some Republicans have voted against disaster aid in areas voting Democratic.
Greg Price is losing it – Russia is far more totalitarian than Jack Smith , for one there are no primaries. And many people are calling for a regime change in Russia.
The movement from public to private employment is extremely common – the public sector gives you experience and the private sector then gives you money. Republican and Democratic staffers do this.
Once again, the charges esp the RICO charge are not about denying or questioning the results but actively seeking to change the result.
Smearing prosecutors, throwing out diversions, etc still do nothing to question the fact a grand jury found enough evidence and 18 people are indicted of trying to change the results of the election. Apparently, Georgia televises trials – I think I will invest in popcorn shares, this will break the OJ Simpson ratings.
Gov. Kemp and his minion Raffensperger are apparently blind.
Instead of indicting Trump for questioning the election results, maybe Fulton County should investigate the poll workers that were caught on video double, triple, and quadruple counting the same stack of ballots

A friend sent me an article from zerohedge about San Francisco downtown. It embedded four videos from Twitter posts that purported to show a filthy and dangerous downtown. In three out of four videos I was surprised how clean it was and how new the cars were. The night video looks a little scary but it’s nighttime in an urban area that is normal. I’ve been to Detroit, Chicago and places like Gary, Indiana which are far worse, as well as my own neighbourhood.
I’m unsure why the situation would prevent office workers from returning to the office. I suspect upper middle class white people raised in the suburbs are used to a more sterile environment. Many of my students and their parents won’t come to my neighbourhood even though it’s perfectly safe. On the other hand, my daughter just moved to a wealthy West Berlin neighbourhood from a dirty working class East Berlin neighbourhood and she’s already complaining. People feel more comfortable with what is familiar. (She’s sharing the apartment with a Swiss banker’s daughter – her dad is paying 2/3rds of the rent)
AJ — Did you just call Conrad Black hard left? He made his first million in Canada busting the union at the grocery chain he owned. He pilfered the company pension plan making his million and then sold the company. From there he went on to commit fraud in both the US and the UK.
He now owes part of the Post media chain in Canada which leans right and endorses the Conservative party each election. The NYT is centrist which of course means it supports Demcorats usually. Its definitely not even centre left. Read the Guardian if you want to read a leftist daily and see the difference.
I think the 11:44 tweet is mistaking Big Tech for Biden. Don’t use social media or a cell phone and you’ll be fine.
Your 11:45 tweet has a selection bias. He fails to take into account that Trump changed the Republican party. Both 2016 and 2020 elections featured large swings in formerly bellweather counties – 14 in 2016 and 18 in 2020. Using this tweet’s reasoning we can also doubt the 2016 election. Its probably closer to say the last 7-8 years have been political unstable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_election_bellwether_counties_in_the_United_States
It appears the left is correct: Hawaiian Electric was incompetent and skipping on maintenance to make profit. One more reason for utility companies to be publicly owned or at least heavily regulated and watched.
I have to agree with the criticisms posted here – it’s a diversion. A diversion from corporate and capitalist greed.
Cruel and unusual punishment in American jails is not a shock. These conditions are not entirely unusual. A Norwegian once refused to extradite an American back to the US because American prisons were deemed cruel and unusual punishment. Amnesty International has been involved in many cases throughout the years most famously Leonard Peltier. Just like the Georgia RICO case, the elites are starting to discover the “other” America where the legal system is designed to punish not provide justice.
Quite the coincidence that Georgia based an DA removal law just last month……I see Texas Democrats like to do something similar. Coke or Pepsi; the parties behave similarly.
Gore quit when the courts said no. He didn’t hold rallies whining.
“In his first interviews since conceding the presidency to George W. Bush almost two years ago, former vice president Al Gore calls the outcome of the 2000 election “a crushing disappointment” and criticizes the 5-4 Supreme Court decision that put Bush in the White House as “completely inconsistent” with the court’s conservative philosophy.
“I believe that if everyone in Florida who tried to vote had had his or her vote counted properly, that I would have won,” Gore said in an interview with Washington Post Magazine staff writer Liza Mundy for an article to be published Sunday. “I strongly disagreed with the Supreme Court decision and the way in which they interpreted and applied the law. But I respect the rule of law, so it is what it is.”
Gore told ABC’s Barbara Walters, in an interview to air tonight on ABC’s “20/20,” that he “absolutely” believed he would become president when the Florida Supreme Court ordered a recount of all disputed ballots in the state, making the result all the more emotionally difficult to accept. His wife, Tipper, said in the Post interview, “I still believe we won.”
—–
But suddenly it’s bad if the Bad Orange Man is complaining and saying he won it 2 years later.
And Trump has yet to have his day in court. The fraud is just coming into view now, after Dems did their best to hide their shenanigans. See above.
” But I respect the rule of law, so it is what it is.” and therein is the key difference.
I welcome Trump’s day in court and hope Georgia broadcasts it live. I’ll even make popcorn. (I hear his lawyers want to delay the trial and not have it on live TV – but if he’s innocent why not)
AJ – live a little. Read the editorial pages of the Guardian (its free) and the Toronto Star (limited views) and then tell my NYT is leftist…..

“I believe that if everyone in Florida who tried to vote had had his or her vote counted properly, that I would have won,” Gore said in an interview with Washington Post Magazine staff writer Liza Mundy for an article to be published Sunday. “I strongly disagreed with the Supreme Court decision and the way in which they interpreted and applied the law. But I respect the rule of law, so it is what it is.”
Gore told ABC’s Barbara Walters, in an interview to air tonight on ABC’s “20/20,” that he “absolutely” believed he would become president when the Florida Supreme Court ordered a recount of all disputed ballots in the state, making the result all the more emotionally difficult to accept. His wife, Tipper, said in the Post interview, “I still believe we won.”

But suddenly it’s bad if the Bad Orange Man is complaining and saying he won it 2 years later.
And Trump has yet to have his day in court. The fraud is just coming into view now, after Dems did their best to hide their shenanigans. See above.

” But I respect the rule of law, so it is what it is.” and therein is the key difference.
I welcome Trump’s day in court and hope Georgia broadcasts it live. I’ll even make popcorn. (I hear his lawyers want to delay the trial and not have it on live TV – but if he’s innocent why not)
AJ – live a little. Read the editorial pages of the Guardian (its free) and the Toronto Star (limited views) and then tell my NYT is leftist…..
